During a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=li_bL49TAI0\">press conference<\/a> Monday, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) said the suspect was a student at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.knoxschools.org\/austineastmhs\">Austin-East Magnet High School<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Officers from the Knoxville Police Department reportedly confronted the student in a bathroom after being warned he might be armed. The suspect reportedly opened fire, in turn, shooting an officer in the upper leg. The officer then returned fire and ended up killing the student.<\/p>\n<p>The injured officer is said to be recovering at an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No other individuals were injured during the incident.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">KPD Officer Adam Willson is recovering from surgery after being wounded in yesterday\u2019s shooting incident at Austin-East Magnet High School.
